Guillermo,
   Glad to see you are still active with Gem. Good article.
Few points on a quick glance:

- You mention - "Cache server authentication allows a new server to join a
cluster. The locator is responsible for authenticating credentials of said
server. The first locator to join the cluster is assumed to be
authenticated and subsequent locators authenticate against the first one"
Strictly speaking it is responsibility of the membership coordinator to
authenticate subsequent ones. And, yes, when using locators, the first
locator will automatically be the coordinator.

- Also important to point out that you should always run Gem cluster in a
secure domain making it super difficult to spoof the node executing the
coordinator.
